zo0op Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Well I've recentley piped my heater matrix back in as when I got the car the water pipes had been by-passed so my heaters were not working so I piped it back up and since then my engine doesn't get up to temp when my heaters are turned on :/ when I turn them off it picks up does anybody know what could be the problem? Any help appreciated thanks Quote
